Not really sure with turbine-intake. I'm using that with xingu-exintake,
but I think the advice works for both.
Build a macro the knows how to display _one_ field. Something like
this :
#macro(showIntakeField $field $data $bean $erase)
#set($value = "")
#if($erase)
#set($value = $field.DefaultValue)
#else
#set($value = $intakeTool.getPreferredValue($field,$data,$bean))
#end
#set($prop = $field.Name)
#intakeFieldName($field $value $bean)
#intakeField($field $value)
#end
Then, on your template :
#set($fieldNames = ["name","lastName"])
#foreach($fieldName in $fieldNames)
#set($field = $intakeTool.get($fieldName))
#showIntakeField($field $data $bean $erase)
#end
Where $bean is the object you pulled from the db, or something else.
I got this working on esqueleto, an turbine app skeleton that I have.
Esqueleto has some modules (Actions,Screens) that creates beans from
form fields, etc !
Cheers !
